Yes, when it's ready. It's usable now, but it's not ready. It will
probably be at least version 0.4 before its ready.
It needs to handle Ctl-C better. I'm fighting with yum and rpm and Python
itself.
It needs to initially choose a reasonable mirror, by checking all the
mirrors and avoiding any that are way behind.
